This is a Dell Vostro 3491 notebook running the latest UEFI firmware. The
following ACPI-related error messages appear shortly after logging into my
desktop environment:

There are no obvious adverse effects. Seen on the current Fedora kernel
kernel-5.6.13-300.fc32.x86_64, but also present when I tried long-term 5.4 and
4.19 kernels.
Another one I've seen is the following:
[ 7769.786461] ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could not resolve symbol
[\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.HEC.ECAV], AE_NOT_FOUND (20200110/psargs-330)
[ 7769.786472] ACPI Error: Aborting method \_TZ.FNCL due to previous error
(AE_NOT_FOUND) (20200110/psparse-529)
[ 7769.786482] ACPI Error: Aborting method \_TZ.FN00._ON due to previous error
(AE_NOT_FOUND) (20200110/psparse-529)
which seems related to fan control. I saw it when I tried
echo 1 > /sys/class/thermal/cooling_device0/cur_state
(The fan seems to be otherwise firmware controlled anyway.)
Obviously these may very well be legit firmware bugs, but I'd rather run it
past the experts before I take it to Dell. Let me know what table dumps etc.
will be required.
